Notes:

The Hymn to the Night is a harmonization due to Joseph Noyon (1888-1962) of a theme from Jean-Philippe Rameau’s opera ‘Hippolyte et Aricie’, created in 1733 (this music being the duo of the Priestesses of Diane “Let us render an eternal homage”, Act I, scene 3).

The lyrics of ‘Hymne à la nuit’ were written by the composer Édouard Sciortino (1893-1979). This music was popularized among the general public by the film Les Choristes.

David Johnstone has transposed this for FOUR cellos (or larger cello ensemble) so as to be readily playable by young cellists, or those with little experience yet. The chosen key is G Major, and the highest position used is fourth position.
